Eight Simple Rules for Dating a Dragon Author: Kerrelyn Sparks Reviewer: Una Rating: A What I’m Talking About: Ms. Sparks continues to enthrall me with her Embraced fantasy romance series. I thoroughly loved Gwen and Silas’s journey and look forward to the next installment. I was most intrigued by the hint in the last book, So, I Married a Sorcerer that Gwen would be the next heroine. She is the most unique appearing of the Isle of the Moon “sisters”; her elven features easily distinguish her ethnicity. Though accepted by her sisters, many others do not. It was sad to see that the animosity from the extended wars between...

About the Book Lost to a Spy Author: Sharon Cullen Publisher: Ballantine/Loveswept Released: March 13, 2018 Series: All the Queen’s Spies #3 Genre: Historical Romance/Suspense Author contact links: Website Purchase links: Amazon, Barnes N Noble Snippet: “Tristan?” “Emma?” Tristan fell back on his heels and relaxed his grip on his dagger. She opened the door wider and he finally saw her slim outline. She looked like a ghost, standing there in her white nightgown, her nearly white hair draped over her shoulders. “What’s wrong?” he asked. “Are you ill?” “No. Nothing like that.” She stood with her hands folded in front of her, looking down at her feet. “Let me...

Welcome to our feature that focus on audiobooks. It’s time to… Audiobook Reviews: Djinn Haven series To Catch a Stolen Soul Author: R.L. Naquin Narrator: Chandra Skye Audio Listening Speed: 1.5x Series: Djinn Haven #1 Genre: Urban Fantasy Source: Tantor Audio I’m so glad that I picked up this new urban fantasy series, Djinn Haven. Kam’s adventure was funny, fascinating and intriguing. Left with a bit of a cliffhanger of intrigue, I cannot wait to listen to the next novel. Though To Catch a Stolen Soul is a spin-off from another of Ms. Naquin’s series, I did not feel as if I was missing out on any back story. That being...

Shooting Star Author: Jeffe Kennedy Reviewer: Una Rating: A- What I’m Talking About: Shooting Star is a darker contemporary romance. At first, I did not think it was my cup of tea. But I have enjoyed several of Ms. Kennedy’s previous works and she has never let me down. After the first couple chapters, I was utterly hooked with my fingers crossed that Joe and Ava could not only survive the journey, but heal and flourish. It’s true I was a bit reluctant when I started this novel. The obsessed fan getting into the inner circle of his object of obsession was unnerving. However, in the past, Ms. Kennedy...

Welcome to our feature that focus on audiobooks. It’s time to… Audiobook Reviews: The Witch Blood Chronicles Binding Magick Author: Debbie Cassidy Narrator: Zehra Jane Naqvi Audio Listening Speed: 1.25x Series:The Witch Blood Chronicles #1 Genre: Urban Fantasy Source: Tantor Audio Binding Magick was something entirely new to me and I absolutely enjoyed it. Ms. Cassidy wove an intriguing and gripping urban fantasy mystery full of mythological characters that were fresh and enthralling. Carmilla is a dud of a witch, a disappointment to her witchblood mother, and pretty much ignored by the witchblood community until she unwittingly accepts a bargain with a Djinn. She then finds herself with power she never...

About the Book The Instigator Author: Stephanie Julian Publisher: Self-published Released: February 16, 2018 Series: Redtails Hockey #4 Genre: Contemporary Sports Romance Author contact links: Website Purchase links: Amazon, BN, iBooks, Kobo REVIEW Snippet: “So what do you do for fun?” Her eyebrows rose, her expression suddenly totally serious. “What? Work, study and chasing after tiny heathens isn’t fun? Are you questioning my life choices?” He opened his mouth to laugh at her joke but caught himself before he did. Shit. Maybe— Her laughter rang out again. “I’m sorry but the look on your face is priceless. You can’t play poker to save your soul, can you?” Grinning openly again,...

About the Book Shooting Star Author: Jeffe Kennedy Publisher: Self-published Released: March 6, 2018 Genre: Darker Contemporary Romance Author contact links: Facebook, Goodreads, Twitter, Website Purchase links: To be posted here REVIEW TO COME Snippet: Joe waited for Ava. He glanced at the clock. 8:30. Manning had said she’d be ready at eight, but he doubted that meant much to Ava, even if she’d gotten the memo. Arlin perched next to him, ecstatic to be included and back in his position as shotgun. Joe wasn’t risking his first real day on the job without the dog’s steadying presence. He’d explain him somehow. The waiting didn’t bother him much. At least...

Welcome to our feature that focus on audiobooks. It’s time to… Audiobook Reviews: A Tommy and Tuppence Mystery The Secret Adversary Author: Agatha Christie Narrator: Nadia May Audio Listening Speed: 1.25x Series: Tommy and Tuppence Mystery #1 Genre: Mystery Source: Library With the release of the new Kenneth Bragnah Murder on the Orient Express movie, the nostalgia I felt over watching a remake of one of my favorite Agatha Christie mysteries has spurred me to finally read one. All of my experiences of Agatha Christie has been via movies or very short stories. There is something to be said to listening to a classic novel and reliving it all over...

About the Book Grave Ransom Author: Kalayna Price Publisher: ACE Released: July 4, 2017 Series: Alex Craft #5 Genre: Urban Fantasy Author contact links: Website Purchase links: Amazon REVIEW Snippet: “Why am I not surprised to see you here?” an eerily familiar, and not completely welcomed, voice asked from off to my right. I spun, my gaze darting around the busy front lobby of Central Precinct. I didn’t see the dark-haired woman, who had always been clad in black leather during my short experience with her a few months back and who should have stood out in the precinct. Of course, I didn’t fully expect to spot her with...
